>steal album>artwork is 2 pixels off being squarefucking bastards
>>128030013>2 Pixels off You're really so lazy you can't use MS Paint to crop it a little? Especially when it's only TWO pixels? Christ, dude.
>>128030152there's no fixed ratio crop option in Paint so I do it in Photoshop and it makes no difference if its 2 pixels or 50, you either have to crop it or you dontbut who doesnt just make the fucking artwork square in the first place? I can understand if its one of those horrible digipack scans where the original isn’t square to begin with but how do you even end up with 700x698px artwork
>>128030152But think of the man hours after everyone boots up MSpaint
>artwork is some black and white picture of a random girl in bed
tbf it's gotten much better
>>128030152thats too advanced for the /mu/ posters of today
>>128030205I have never seen this in ~20 years of pirating music
They should have Soleseek which is just like feet stuff lol.
>>128030205Post it
>>128030249>>128030714I assume anon is talking about a very specific album. "I Am a Bird Now" by Antony and the Johnsons It uses a famous photograph called "Candy Darling on Her Deathbed" as the cover. She was a trans model that worked for Andy Warhol, which fits the concept of the album.
>>128030013just google the album name and download the artwork from there jesus how hard can it be
>>128030922dude google hasnt worked for getting decent quality album art for years
>>128030944Name the album in question, then. Guarantee it shouldn't take more than six minutes.
>>128031215album is called "massive wieners"
>>128030836IN THE BACKROOM SHE WAS EVERYBODY'S DARLING
>>128031215oh dear, youre rather missing the point aren't you?searching up another version of the album art is more work that cropping the slightly off-square version that came with the dl
>>128030013>stealwdym?
>>128031517>searching up another version of the album art is more work that cropping the slightly off-square version that came with the dlYes. I'm agreeing with that. I'm more saying if that's so difficult for OP (for some reason) then googling a cover isn't rocket science.
>>128030013>artwork is 200x200
>>128031682
>>128030013>embedded artwork on each file is 8mb
>>128030013sometimes album artwork isn't actually a square tho, and if you crop it to a square it fucks with the proportions. Pic related for example, making it a square would make the white borders outside the middle picture uneven
>>128033037a lot of the time you can look up a vinyl release to find an offical square version
>>128030013>the highest quality upload is one where the album artwork is placed next to the actual LP itselfwhy are we here just
>>128033037in these cases I still increase the canvas size to square it. with that specific cover I would then adjust the position of the picture to make the borders look rightI will not tolerate unsquare album art
worst is when the album only ever came out on cassette
The user "degraded tapes" unironically shares cp and cartel-related gore videos. What the actual fuck? He banned me after I told him about it lmao.
>>128034435>it's realhe unshared the folder already XD
>>128034435>>128034516kek. I saw that too.
>downloaded album of pedoseek>cp embedded in the tagsyeah i can see why you sickos like this program
>>128030013>steal albumSo you went into a music store and stole a record or cd. What does that have to with the other shit? People like you should never go to discogs to grab a cover. It's appalling what some of the users upload. 100x100, flash obscuring half the cover, not in focus, etc.. That's some shit to get irritated about not 2 fucking pixels
>>128034435the fact that you found that should put you on a list
>>128030013fanart.tv exists, y'knowmusicbee will even download it and embed it for you, though I like to make sure I get the correct version
>>128033753Is that name really just MOIN, like the north german greeting?
>>128034435the user 'harshdrone' is a faggot as well
now you guys are giving me ideas to hide some artworks in albums just for fun
>>128038989https://www.discogs.com/artist/2835065-Moin-2seems so
threadly reminder that user "waddaw" is the giantest faggot on slsk and everyone should block him on principle
>>128033803I like the cassette proportions. Also you can choose to include the spine or the whole thing
>>128031682>album art is 13x13
>>128040055>AlbumArt_{568832C5-DBAB-4CBE-8C76-E64BDC47E4A0}_Small.jpg
>>128030013>no artwork>no tagsdo these fags even listen to their shit? do they just not use a music player?
>>128039411i hate that fucking cunt>>128039034yo, this guy unshared his files and unironically called me a pleb kek
Why do you weirdos still use Soulseek in 2025?We have private trackers, which are actually safe to use, and 97% of all music recorded in human history music is available on Spotify or Youtube MusicAre you that poor, a 30 year old boomer that can't let go of old habits or just trying very hard to be part of something?
>>128042115>private trackersdo i need someone to send me an invite or what>>128039034oh yeah this guy is an asshole and so is that degraded tapes fag
>>128042115>We have private trackers>trying very hard to be part of somethinglmaobut since youre dumb as fuck and cant see the obvious, people use soulseek because there are no requirements. all you have to do is install the client. dont need an invite, dont have to pass any interview/get the autist seal of approval, dont have to seed, you engage with it entirely on your own terms
if I don't find a satisfactory artwork I spend hours photoshopping it until it looks good, is this normal?
>file doesn't include the art workStop making me put more effort.
>>128041931a lot of boomer oldfags just use the file directory in windows explorer to browse their collection so they don't bother with tags
>>128042830I've done this a few times with cassette releases.
>>128034435His files are not returning to me or are not showing. Hmmm.
>>128043567lmao nigga got caught. can't wait until he gets listed. what a moron.
if you find illegal shit on soulseek it's because you were searching for itkys pedo scum
>>128044396this
bump
>>128030836bad bitch even if she needed dental work
>>128044396accurate
>>128030013
>>128042115
>>128030944Fwiw, going to Search Tools in image search and selecting Large might workbut yes definitely annoying when it just brings you to an amazon listing or something
>>128039620This Low Down tape rocks
>>128051126>Fwiw, going to Search Tools in image search and selecting Large might work
>>128030944>>128030922just use discogs
>>128051209I don’t know why this is funny, was just trying to help
>>128043056dont use windows but that's what i do. never saw the point in using tags when you've already named the directory properly
>>128052126because you have to use a media player to listen to the files anyway and all media players can display your library by artist or genre or year etc
>>128053026i just drag the folder into the queue of the media player and have it play from that. dont use any library feature.
>>128053401fine. but when you have a large library more organisational tools are useful
>>128042115where i live there is no unsafe piracy. private trackers that are actually good pretty much require you to have a seed box if you want to use them freely. with soulseek i require an internet connection
>>128030013>track number tags are 01, 02, 03, etc instead of 1, 2, 3
>>128056280your tism sounds a lot worse than mine
>album, tracks and even the artist name has improper capitalization
>>128056280>sorting options have the artist's last name first
>>128030013shit i forgot about soulseek. i used that shit 20 years ago
>>128056280I always do this because otherwise it looks uneven when the number goes from 9 to 10
>>128042115>97% of all music recorded in human history music is available on Spotify or Youtube Musicmost fake and gay take I've ever seen
>>128030013>he doesn't know about kid3 and musicbrainz
>>128030013Just do this
>>128042115>97% of all music recorded in human history music is available on Spotify or Youtube Music
>>128057427in fairness to you, it works about half the time, but anything remotely obscure will fail. better off using albumartexchange desu.
>>128056280don't you want your track file names to be alphabetical?
>>128056280yes, because I rename files pulling from the metadata
>>128057580>zoomer doesn't know the difference between filenames and tagsgrim
>>128058235There's no reason not to prepend a 0 except to harm your delicate sensibilities. It's pragmatic.
>>128058814Holy shit. Zoomers are fucking retarded it hurts.
>>128030152how do I open that on my phone?
>>128030152>he doesn't know how hard it is to crop 2 pixels on mspaint
>not using RED/OPSngmi
>>128058814>zoomer still doesn't know the difference between filenames and tags
>>128030013>dl album>'Consider sharing before downloading!'>'Consider this dick.'>finish dling album>ignore user>unshare files from userthanks for the free music chump
now that doubledouble isn't able to rip from qobuz is there any other app that can? theres an album that comes out at the end of the month but qobuz already has the tracks in their database and should be rippable.
>>128062936Beggars can't be choosers.
>>128062936if i really wanted an album that hadnt even come out yet i would just wait until it did before buying it because i clearly care a lot about the music and i would want the artist to have every opportunity possible to succeed (including my financial support from me buying the album)
